Hello Ladies and Gentlemen
It has been awhile since the last Community Skinning Project.
To start off, all community skinners are eligible and encouraged to submit a WindowBlinds entry for a contest. Yes you read that correctly, a contest with the winner's WindowBlinds being used as the theme for the community project as the prize.
A few rules, only one entry per skinner and it must meet the established guidelines for uploading of a WindowBlinds. Since this is for a Community Project and we know the community still uses XP, Vista and now Windows 7 you know what we are looking for. The entries on a minimum will be skinned for Windows 7.
Volunteers are needed to judge the entries. One simple rule, if you volunteer to judge you can not submit a WB. You can however sign up to make themed skins. We need a minimum of five but no more than ten judges. I'm expecting a lot of entries.
When does the contest end, Friday the 18th of March. All entries for the contest will be uploaded to the WinCustomize WindowBlinds Gallery Library no earlier then Monday, 14 March (you really don't want to show your entry to the other skinners early now do you?) and no later than Friday, 18 March. All entries should include 'For Community Skinning Project' in it's description. Winner will be selected on Friday, 25 March.
Once a winning theme is selected community skinners will be able to sign up for skins they wish to make and get the graphics and start skinning.
What can you make a themed skin for you ask, if it has a WinCustomize Library you can make a skin for it.
Can there be multiple skins as in two or three Wallpapers or Logons, yes, but only one per skinner.
Can a skinner sign up to do several different skins, yes.
Only one rule for themed skins, they will use the theme graphics. The only exceptions will be for Screensavers, Dreams and Wallpapers. These will though have a tie in to the theme of the project.
Please leave a reply to this thread if you will be submitting an entry in the contest.
Ahhh, what are you waiting on, the contest starts............NOW!
UPDATE:

Judges: RedneckDude, gmc2, PCPrincess, navigatsio, WebGizmos, Zubaz, DrJBHL
Well...by the looks of these skins...there are going to be more than one "Community Project" going so to speak after this contest. I think next time we need to pick the "theme" idea up front and work off of that.
I've picked one skin...but I think they are all deserving of "extras" which made this hard to judge.
I know bud...it's all good!
Got all 4...waiting on 5, but gotta say...damn fine work y'all!
Ah ok...Waiting on the last one then.
Me three.
Me too ... too. Got 4of5.
Hehe
Ditto!!!!!!!!!
Ross is ALWAYS fashionably late......i should know, he was late for our first date...... *giggles*
just joking Ross.....now get movin!!!
Yeah, but he's always worth the wait.
damn straight!.........but then again, so is boxxi............
Right! But he's not playing
Oh where, oh where is #5, he impatiently ponders. You still alive and kicking skinning, Ross?!?!?
Yup. Oh ... sorry. you mean the other Ross. My bad.
I'd answer, but I'm to busy! I'll see you Friday....
All right folks, one more day to get an entry in.
Z71 is working on one, and we all hope he is able to make the deadline.
Wonder if there is anyone else planning on uploading and entry.
The monthe and date are fine. If you make it 2016 I might be in.
Not me. I'm waiting cause I'm gonna be busy for sure afterwards.
Hey Dave, nothing after 2012.
Philly: Give a time and date deadline, and please be specific.
Yeah and concise too. I might have learned a thing or three by then.
From the OP:
The 18th of March ends at midnight. All entries should be uploaded so they make it through moderation and show in the WindowBlinds Gallery Library before the 19th of March. The winner will probably be annouced earlier if there are no more entries.
Was that what you were looking for Doc? If there is a problem please PM me.
Looks pretty specific to me...lol...
2400 - Eastern, Central, Pacific or Specific time???
Nope. That's fine.
navigatsio, by midnight on the clock from where the skinner is submitting.
